Describe your use case and the problem you are facing

BlockExtractor is using a hardcoded list of fields to translate from block.json file:

i18n-command/src/BlockExtractor.php

Lines 46 to 66 in ea8a6b3

	case 'title':
	case 'description':
	$translation = $translations->insert( sprintf( 'block %s', $key ), $original );
	if ( $add_reference ) {
	$translation->addReference( $file );
	}
	break;
	case 'keywords':
	if ( ! is_array( $original ) ) {
	continue 2;
	}
	foreach ( $original as $msg ) {
	$translation = $translations->insert( 'block keyword', $msg );
	if ( $add_reference ) {
	$translation->addReference( $file );
	}
	}
	break;
	case 'styles':

Describe the solution you'd like

Replicate the approach used for ThemeJsonExtractor that uses schema for theme.json located in WordPress core codebsase:

i18n-command/src/ThemeJsonExtractor.php

Lines 106 to 125 in ea8a6b3

	private static function remote_get( $url ) {
	if ( ! $url ) {
	return '';
	}
	$headers = [ 'Content-type: application/json' ];
	$options = [ 'halt_on_error' => false ];
	$response = Utils\http_request( 'GET', $url, null, $headers, $options );
	if (
	! $response->success
	|| 200 > (int) $response->status_code
	|| 300 <= $response->status_code
	) {
	WP_CLI::debug( "Failed to download from URL {$url}", 'make-pot' );
	return '';
	}
	return trim( $response->body );
	}

The schema for block.json is located at https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/master/src/wp-includes/block-i18n.json.

Related question:

Since https://schemas.wp.org/trunk/theme.json is now a thing apparently, any plans on making the the i18n schemas available there as well?

[gziolo]

Sure. It uses similar URL now:

https://schemas.wp.org/trunk/block.json

Wait, for i18n. Yes, that would be great 👍

Who could set up these URLs?

Who could set up these URLs?

I see the URL got updated by @mkaz in WordPress/gutenberg#36316, but I don't know who set them up. I can't see any reference in Meta WordPress Trac, too.
